I must say great video! Nice work on the line, and nice bit of cardio to get ya goin before the fire lol. 

[mchunterfd]

@WestPlainsFD ah ok that makes sense, thanks for the answer.

[joachimfws]

whats the backpack thing? a leaf blower?

[WestPlainsFD]

@joachimfws YES

[joachimfws]

@WestPlainsFD i have never seen a leaf blower in firefighting before, but now i think it make sense, especially in ground fires.

greetings from germany

[lonelymale86]

@joachimfws yea they work well in makeing a fire line , and snuffing out the fire

[R5H4D0W]

@WestPlainsFD so in essence turning the brushfire into a forced air forge that readily consumes fuel? or using a blower to quickly identify hotspots? thanks

how does your number system work? ours is different then your alls. 1801- 1811 is trucks and 1811 is chief on down the line to 1852

[WestPlainsFD]

@mchunterfd Our personnel go by their DSN with fire dept being 400 series. Starting with 401-chief, 402-asst chief, and so on with Captains in the teens, Loutinants in the 20's, Engineers in the 30's and 40's, and POC's after that.

[WestPlainsFD]

@mchunterfd 4601 is our designated fire dept identification number. so all our apparaus start with the number 46, the next number is the station number, and the last number is the truck number. So 4611 is station 1 engine 1, 4622 is station 2 engine 2, 4633 is station 3 engine 3, 4626 is station 2 rescue 6, 4614 is station 1 aerial 4, etc. Haz Mat apparatus follow suit.

love your vids, quick suggestion you should so a picture of what you are riding in at the beginning of the video it would make it so much better

[WestPlainsFD]

@Recon649 When we arrive on scene, I looked back at the engine we were responding in. 4611

[Recon649]

@WestPlainsFD I know

[fireheadquarters]

Pickup infront of you guys should have ran blocker

[WestPlainsFD]

@fireheadquarters We dont run blocker in this area.

[condog99100]

[WestPlainsFD]

[mchunterfd]

[WestPlainsFD]

@mchunterfd Excellent! That is one of the reasons we run videos.

[Gunner8381]

Great vid once again keep em comin

[HedgehogOutdoors]

In my dept I got in trouble for having a video driving by a fire scene that was cleaned up, stuff everyone could see if they drove by, nothing like this.

[JPorkins88]

Control Burn that got out of hand?

[WestPlainsFD]

@JPorkins88 Yes, got a little out of hand.
